1710 W University Ave Waltz into the new year in your new home situated on a tree-lined street with feelings of yesteryear. An inviting covered front porch offers the perfect setting for enjoying your favorite bevvie and sharing laughter with friends and family. This home brings you in by the stately presence of a grand staircase and the warm patina of original hardwood floors and rich wood trim. To your right, the gracious Parlor offers many possibilities-a distinguished library, an elegant sitting room, a home office, or guest bedroom (just add doors!). Beyond, the formal dining room remains true to its time, walls adorned with rich velvet wallpaper. The living room was once a main-floor master retreat with an en suite, and could be effortlessly restored to its original purpose. Complete with built-in shelving and double closets. The kitchen is charming with space for small table and chairs, or sideboard / additional pantry space. Upstairs you'll find three generously sized bedrooms (two with walk-in closet) and a second full bath. While nothing fancy, the basement offers utility and function, having most recently served as a dedicated home office and gaming area. It also provides invaluable storage and secure shelter when the weather turns. Outside, the extra-deep two-car garage is ideal for vehicles - that's right, bring your extra long trucks and SUVs. Space for workbench and more storage! The spacious backyard offers plenty of space for cookouts, entertaining, kids and pups alike to burn off energy, a bountiful garden! This home has a BRAND NEW ROOF, NEW SIDING on the north and west sides, a NEWER DUAL-ZONED HVAC system for optimal comfort, NEWER WINDOWS, and UPGRADED ELECTRIC service. Perfectly situated, it offers the convenience of being close to the delightful shops and restaurants of the Historic Delano District, with easy access to Kellogg, and is located just a quarter mile east of the picturesque Friends University campus.
